I'm Leo, an Argentinian by birth and a naturally curious soul, passionate about the hidden stories cities have to tell. I guide with the same enthusiasm I bring to my travels: searching for the authentic, the unexpected, and what rarely shows up on maps. What I enjoy most is watching a city come to life when we learn to see it with fresh eyes.

Tour description

🧭 Lübeck through different eyes: history, secrets, and different perspectives

It all started with a gate. The imposing Holstentor greeted me when I first arrived in Lübeck, and from then on, I knew this city had much more to offer than postcards and dates. Every corner holds a whisper, a story, an image that comes to life when you look at it with curiosity.

This tour isn't a history lesson; it's a live, up-close experience. We'll walk through hidden alleys, squares steeped in centuries-old memories, and buildings that have survived the test of time. I invite you to rediscover Lübeck, not as a tourist, but as an explorer of the invisible.

During the tour we will see:

  • The Holstentor Gate and its history as a medieval defense
  • The bridge over the Trave and the old salt depot
  • The impressive St. Mary's Church, the heart of Baltic Gothic
  • The Church of San Pedro, with its panoramic viewpoint
  • The Church of Santiago, little known but full of symbolism
  • The merchants' quarter and its charming corridors
  • The town hall square and its stories of power
  • References to Nobel Prize winners Thomas Mann and Willy Brandt
  • We'll finish near the Hospital del Espíritu Santo, in a serene setting, ideal for further exploration on your own.
